Saudi Arabia is headed by a horribly represive regime. It's also the home of Wahabism, a version of religion designed to keep people in the dark of fundamentalist faith and away from the education and knowledge that could free their minds.. On the other hand, it's hard to find a leader these days who represents a holistic ablility to lead a nation through these dangerous times. Protesters have a way of cherry picking among leaders and nations when in comes to protest. Keeping in mind China's treatment of Tibet and iits other minorities while shielding the regimes in Darfur and Iran, would there be a like reaction if China came to call? Protests are easy. Finding solutions is exceedingly hard. The protesters are right, of course. Saudi Arabia is headed by a horribly represive regime.
